具体描述
Michael Beard is a Nobel prize-winning physicist whose best work is behind him. Trading on his reputation, he speaks for enormous fees, lends his name to the letterheads of renowned scientific institutions and half-heartedly heads a government-backed initiative tackling global warming. A compulsive womaniser, Beard finds his fifth marriage floundering. But this time it is different: she is having the affair, and he is still in love with her. When Beard's professional and personal worlds collide in a freak accident, an opportunity presents itself for Beard to extricate himself from his marital mess, reinvigorate his career and save the world from environmental disaster. Ranging from the Arctic Circle to the deserts of New Mexico, "Solar" is a serious and darkly satirical novel, showing human frailty struggling with the most pressing and complex problem of our time. A story of one man's greed and self-deception, it is a profound and stylish new work from one of the world's great writers.

评分 评分by黄昱宁 地球的命运，是麦克尤恩2010年的长篇新作《追日》（Solar）探讨的深层主题。近年来，这几乎是所有企图将“全球视角”（world view）注入小说的作家都探讨过或者至少是隐约指向过的问题。 麦克尤恩不像玛格丽特?阿特伍德或者多丽丝?莱辛那样热衷于寓言式科幻，...
